Anthony Chavez
@anthonychavez
Embedded firmware engineer who delivers reliable RTOS-ready code and modular architectures that cut costs and speed field updates.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Embedded Firmware Engineer focused on building robust, scalable embedded firmware and application-level code that improves reliability and maintainability. At Transact Technology (2022–Present), I’ve established a TDD environment, authored clear testing instructions for QA, and redesigned legacy firmware into a modular architecture to make feature expansion easier.
I also bring strong hands-on debugging and production impact. Previously at Server Technology (2017–2022), I designed and validated firmware and tested printed circuit boards, contributed to multiple generations of power distribution products, and improved production efficiency with operator-focused interfaces and auto-detection capabilities. I’ve also developed a new bootloader enabling live field updates, reducing shipping and repair costs, and I built a fully custom Windows print driver to integrate hardware smoothly.
